During the 2023 Gaspereau Press Wayzgoose, Andrew Steeves invited authors Jim Johnstone, Christopher Patton, and Klara du Plessis to discuss the state of contemporary literary criticism and curation. This book presents an edited transcript of their illuminating conversation. Its publication also marks the final Gaspereau Press Wayzgoose held in Kentville, Nova Scotia, with a brief account of 24-year’s-worth of speakers, readers, and guest artists who participated in this unique cultural event.
